WASHINGTON, March 15.-Much surprise
and CONSERVATION has been caused the dis

made by Senator Edmunds that the action
Of President Cleveland in signing the dis
trict Of Columbia appropriation bill after
noon on March 4 was illegal The question
has never been raised, although it has fire.
quently occurred, and it is not believed that
auy one will attempt to make case in the
courts to test the matter. The fiction Of
turning back the hands of the clock on
March 4, at the end Of the short session of
congress, is practice coexistent with con-
gress itself, and fifty appropriation bills
have been signed under precisely similar
circumstances as was the district of Colum-
bia bill by President Cleveland.

a CRACKED TRUSS.
A Bit Of Iron Which May Explain the
Accident.

A BIT Of Iron Which May Explain the
Accident.
BosToN, March 15-The city authorities
have piece Of iron which will probably
play an important part in the investigation
which will be made. 1t is about foot and
half long, and when whole was probably
. foot wide. 1t is one end Of heavy iron
truss, broken of, and split about through
its longitudinal center. This end Of the
truss rested upon the stone abutn,ent near
est Forest Hills station. The interesting
point connected with this broken piece Of
truss is that the side of the split, for o
length Of about fourteen inches or 80, shows
a thick coat Of rust indicating that it had
been cracked or split some length of time
The remaining four inches or so Of the split
is fresh and new where it was broken. It
is supposed that this long crack in the end
of the truss SO weakened that it broke, let
ting the rest of the big truss and bridge
down under the heavy weight Of the cars.
The remainder of the big broken truss can
he seen in the wreck, and the place where
the broken piece came out is very noticea-
bic.
BosToN, Morch 16-A civil engineer who
visited ths scene of the accident says that
he saw supporting rod which was
badly rusted, and which may posi-
hly have been the cause of the ca
tastrophe 1t extended from one truss to the
other close to the abutment nearest the
Forest Hills station and supported the road
bed. II this had broken, it would have
allowed the beam upon which the rail rested
to drop, and the car would have struck the
abutment Of course, it is impossible to
say that this did occur, though it is not
improbable.
Another able civil engineer who examined
the wreck says that he found several defects
in the bridge. These could not have been
discovered before tho bridge went down,
however, even by a careful examination,
owing to the construction Of the bridge. 1t
is usual in bridges of this character, he
said. to build them in such way that these
points may be examined

Mr.. BEEcHFR's PROPERTY.
Only . Small Portion Left OF His Large
~ Earnings.


~ Earnings.
NV YoRK, March lit has been given
out on Maj. Ponds authority that MIR.
Beecher's will has been read to the family.
1t was the dead clergyman's wish that the
will should not he published, and Maj.
Pond said that the family has decided not
to admit 1t to probate. Neither the terms
OF the will nor the names of the executors
would be made public The will would be
executed privately, 1t being satisfactory to
all the heirs Some question was raised at
the reading as to whether the will could
legally be kept unprobated. Gen. Horatio
King advised the family that 1t could.
Only three persons outside thu Beecher
family knew the contents Of the will-Mai.
Pond himself, Gen. King and Rossiter w.
Raymond. Various estimates are made of
the value Of the property left by Mr..
Beachcr.
While he received large salary, SEQ, 900
year for the past twelve years, he always
spent money with a liberal hand. For the last
two years he contributed $4,000 each year
toward the music and other expenses Of the
church, owing to the decrease on the pew
rents What is regarded as a close esti-
mate Of the amount he has earned in his
long and busy lifetime places it at s., ,00O,-
600.
His salary for fifty years at an average
Of $4,000 a year it was over this amount
for more than half the period would
aggregate s500,000
From his lectures and addresses 1t is esti-
mated that he received about 100000, and
his income from his literary works, copy
right in his books and wedding fees, ETC., is
placed at $500, 900 more.
In regard to his estate, Major Pond says
that it will amount to $15O,0O0 or 100000.
Other friends are inclined to consider this
amonnt too high. One Of the leading mem
bers of the church said last evening that he
would be surprised il the total exceeded
100000. Mr.. Beecher's life was insured
for S25, 900, and he owned his house and
farm at Peekskill, which are estimated to
be worth $4,000.
He had fine library and choice etchings,
many of them artists proofs, which have
greatly increased in value since they were
purchased He had valuable collection
Of gems, most Of them exceedingly fine and
of great value. 1t is understood he di-
reoted the pictures and precious stones to
be sold after his DEATH
